Just received these in and upon first inspection they appear to be very well made. I compared them to an original round I have and they are identical. I look forward to loading them up and trying them out in my 1878/81 Vetterli. Thank you Buffalo Arms for providing these well made converted Lebel cases to keep an old 10.4X38R (41) Swiss rifle going.

Purchased 20 cases for my newly converter Vetterli. They were so well done I had to look twice at the head stamps to convince myself that they were converted and not factory new.
They loaded easily and shoot well. Great product at a price I consider too low to bother with converting 8mm Label myself.

Finally got around to loading these brass, which I got last summer. C.I.L primers, 54 grains of Pyrodex RS. I had converted the bolt to centre fire a while back (yes, this has been a long term project).
Took 50 loaded cartridges to the range and went through them in about 20 minutes.
The brass cycled flawlessly. I use precast and pre lubed soft lead .44 bullets (yes, the same ones that I use for my .44 S & W Special chambered Reich Revolver).
Shoots between 975 and 1015 fps.
Will be buying another 100 brass because the 50 I have is no where near enough.
High quality brass. Highly recommended for anyone with one of these Vetterlis. Convert your rim fires to centre fire and get your wall hanger out to the range.
